rear of the recorder (fig. 2).
Connecting the recorder to the mains
Before connecting the recorder to the mains,
ensure that voltage selector @ is set to the local
mains supply. if it is not, turn the voltage selector
with a suitable screwdriver or one of the support
pins supplied until the correct voltage value ap-
pears in the recess (fig. 2). Then insert the female
plug of the mains lead in socket €4 and, after this,
insert the mains plug in the wall socket. |
Warning: Always disconnect the mains lead before
opening the apparatus.

Automatic stop
When
the
metal
switching
foil
at
the
start
and
end
of
the
tape
passes
the
switching
contact
®
(fig.

any
depressed
keys
are
automatically
disengaged
and
the
tape
stops.
This
automatic
stop
operates
during
recording,
playback
and
fast
winding.
If
tapes
without
metal
switching
foil
are
used,
any
depressed
keys
are
disengaged
by
the
integral
tape-breakage
protection
mechanism.
Four-track system
This
four-track
recorder
allows
four
recordings
to
be
made
over
the
full
length
of
the
tape.
The
four
recording
tracks
lie
above
each
other.
Each
tape
can
thus
take
four
mono
recordings
or
two
stereo
recordings
(a
stereo

Counter
and
memory
stop
Make
a
habit
of
setting
counter
@}
to
’0000"
by
pressing
zero
reset
button
@
immediately
after
threading
a
tape.
You
can
make
a
note
of
the
counter
reading
at
which
each
recording
starts
on
the
index
card
of
the
tape
storage
box.
Later,
you
can
swiftly
locate
any
recording
desired
by
re-
winding
or
winding
to
the
counter
reading
con-
cerned.
Note
that
the
counter
gives
no
indication
as
to
the
length
or
playing
time
of
the
tape.
If
memory
switch
@)is
pressed
in,
the
tape
will
stop
automatically
during
fast
winding,
rewinding
or
playback
when
the
counter
passes
’0000’.
The

memory stop is not operative during recording. By
setting the counter to 0000’ when a recording is
commenced, the beginning of this recording can,
later, be swiftly located by pressing memory switch
@Q and then rewind key The memory stop is
switched off by pressing switch @9 again.
Fast winding/cueing
The wind speed can be varied, during fast winding
and rewinding, by means of control 67).
When function selector 68 is in its lower position,
cueing is made possible, during fast winding, by
moving cueing knob @§) to its upper position; this
causes the tape to be held against the playback
head. The recorded sound is played back at a
speed that is controllable via wind speed control @)
and, with a little experience, particular parts of
recordings can soon be recognized and thus,
quickly located. Note: Do not leave the cueing
knob in its upper position unnecessarily.
When switching from one tape travel function to
another (e.g. fast rewinding to start), it is not
necessary to depress the stop button first. The
pause button @) does not operate during fast
winding. When function selector 68 is in its upper
position, start key does not operate; fast
winding and rewinding is possible but without the
cueing function.
Dynamic Noise Limiter - DNL
The DNL suppresses tape noise without greatly
affecting the naturalness of the music signal. It
operates only during quiet passages and in the
absence of signal on the tape, which is when noise
is most apparent. The DNL operates during play-
back and during monitoring with monitor selector
at ’A’. Thus recordings being made on this
recorder are entirely unaffected by the DNL. The
DNL is operated by switch 69; indicator 6) lights
when the DNL is switched on.
Connections
The recorder is fitted with DIN standard connec-
tion sockets. Equipment fitted with DIN connection
sockets can be connected to the recorder using
lead 4822 321 20207 (EL 3768/14). For the con-
nection of equipment and accessories fitted with
other than DIN plugs or sockets, adapter leads and
plugs are available from your dealer.
In the interests of safety, consult your dealer if you
wish to connect equipment not having a recorder
connection socket (e.g. a TV-set).
@ Socket 6): output for stereo headset. With the
groove in the headset plug opposite '+’ the
MFB-loudspeaker enclosures remain switched on.
With the groove opposite ’—’ the MFB-loudspea-
ker enclosures are switched off.
@ Socket 6%: input for stereo microphone or for
the left-hand channel mono microphone when
making stereo recordings with two microphones.
This socket also serves as an extra input for a
radio, amplifier or second recorder. The recording
level (also when using the unit as a control
amplifier) is adjusted with control and, when
using a stereo sound source, with the controls
and 62.
@ Socket 6: input for the right-hand channel
mono microphone when making stereo recordings
with two microphones. The recording level (also
when using the unit as a control amplifier) is
adjusted with control 62.
@ Socket @: input for record player. Switch
must be in its upper position when using a non-HiFi
pick-up cartridge (crystal or ceramic); in its lower
position the pre-amplifiers are switched in for a
HiFi pick-up cartridge (magnetic or HiFi-ceramic).
For record players with a built-in pre-amplifier,
switch must be in its upper position. Record
players with built-in output amplifiers must be
connected to socket € or
@ Socket @): auxiliary input for radio, amplifier,
recorder, combined gramophone/amplifier or
electronic organ.
@ Socket ۤ: tuner input. Radios and combined
tuner/amplifiers can be connected to socket 6% or
@ Socket €9: combined input/output (record and
playback) for all equipment - radios, amplifiers,
combined gramophone/amplifier and tuner/ampli-
fier systems, tape and cassette recorders - fitted
with a recorder or diode connection.
@ Socket @0: contro! amplifier output for MFB-
loudspeaker enclosures. The input sensitivity
control on the MFB-loudspeaker enclosures
should be set to ‘1 V’.
@ Socket @): monitor output for amplifier (allowing
listening-in during recording) or for a second
recorder (allowing simultaneous recording by two —
recorders). The monitor socket provides an output
signal during use as a control-amplifier and both
during playback and recording, except when the
recorder is in the record/pause position with
monitor selector @) in position ’A’.
@ Socket @: socket for remote control unit, by
which the tape can be started and stopped during
recording and playback. When the remote control
unit is employed, pause key @ must always be
pressed, either together with start key for
playing back or with start key @4 and record key
for recording.

Use of microphones
For
microphone
recordings
you
can
connect
two
mono
microphones,
one
to
socket
and
the
other
to
socket
ۤ,
or
a
stereo
microphone
to
socket
64.
Depending
on
the
position
of
track
selector
9,
the
recordings
made
in
each
case
will
be
either
stereo
or
mono.
For
mono
recordings
you
can,
if
desired,
connect
only
one
microphone
to
socket
64
or
68.
For
stereo
recordings
the
mono
microphone
for
the
left
channel
must
face
the
left
and
that
for
the
right
channel
the
right
of
the
sound
source.
For
speech
recordings
the
distance
between
mouth
and
microphone
should
be
about
30
cm.
For
music
recordings,
trials
should
be
made
to
determine
the
most
suitable
positions.
To
prevent
unwanted
recorder
noise
being
picked
up
by
the
microphones,
these
should
be
placed
away
from
the
recorder.
If
a
large
amount
of
background
noise
is
present
whilst
making
speech
recordings,
the
clarity
can
be
increased
by
setting
the
microphone
sensitivity
switch
@6
to
'~
20
dB’
and
reducing
the
distance
between
mouth
and
microphone
to
5-10
cm.
Switch
@
should
also
be
set
to
’~
20
dB’
if
you
are
recording
sounds
at
very
high
levels
or
with
very
high
peaks
(e.g.
beatgroups).
Listening-in
during
recording
(monitoring)
You
can
check
what
is
going
onto
the
tape
by
monitoring
during
recording.
Monitoring
through
a
headset
is
of
particular
advantage
when
making
microphone
recordings
since
it
averts
the
danger
of
the
microphone
picking
up
sound
from
the
loudspeakers
and
thus
causing
a
whistling
noise
(‘howling’
or
‘acoustic
feedback’).
By
means
of
monitor
selector
@,
which
operates
only
during
recording,
you
can
choose
between
‘after
tape’
and
‘before
tape’
monitoring.
-
‘A’
is
the
after
tape
switch
position.
The
signal
which
the
record
head
©
(fig.
6)
has
put
on
the
tape
is
reproduced
immediately
afterwards
by
the
playback
head
©,
Thus
what
you
then
hear
is
the
signal
as
recorded.
Note
that
with
monitor
selector
at
’A’
and
the
tape
stationary
(the
pause
key
being
engaged),
the
playback
head
gives
no
signal
and
so
nothing
is
heard.
-
'B'
is
the
before
tape
switch
position.
In
this
case
what
you
hear
is
the
signal
as
it
sounds
before
the
record
head
has
put
it
on
the
tape.
With
monitor
selector
@)
at
'B’
and
the
tape
stationary
(the
pause
key
being
engaged),
the
signal
as
it
sounds
prior
to
recording
is
continuously
heard.

To monitor, proceed as follows:
@
Connect
MFB-loudspeaker
enclosures
or
a
headset
(see
Connections’)
or
connect
an
am-
plifier
to
monitor
socket
@.
e
Set
monitor
selector
to
'B’
if
the
tape
is
stationary
or
to
’A’
if
the
tape
is
running.
@
Adjust
the
volume,
balance
and
tone

Introduction to recording
@
Copying
of
gramophone
records
and
recording
of
radio
programmes
is
permissible
only
insofar
as
copyright
or
other
rights
of
third
parties
are
not
thereby
infringed.
@
The
strength
at
which
the
sound
is
recorded
on
the
tape
determines
the
quality
of
the
sound
obtainable
on
playback.
This
‘recording
level’
is
adjusted
via
the
controls
@
and
62
when
recording
via
the
microphone
sockets
64
and
68)
and
by
the
controls
63
and
@)
for
all
other
recordings.
The
recording
level
is
checked
by
reference
to
the
recording
level
meters
@
and
©
and
the
overload
indicators
@
and

Post-fading
It is possible, during playback, to fade-out and
fade-in parts of the recording. This is particularly
useful when undesired applause, announcements,
background noise, etc. are present on the tape.
Caution should be taken when using the facility,
since incorrect use can spoil the recording. It is
recommended that an old dispensable recording is
used to gain experience of this facility as follows:
@ Play the tape and take note of the start and
duration in seconds of the piece to be faded-out.

@
Rewind
the
tape
to
a
point
before
the
fading
is
required

upwards
with
the
other
hand
(the
sound
will
now
fade
away).
When
sliding
the
post-fading
control
downwards,
the
sound
will
return.
The
fade-in
and
fade-out
speed
is
deter-
mined
by
the
speed

Mixing sounds
This
recorder
permits
mixing
of
inputs
from
differ-
ent
sound
sources
e.g.
a
record
player
and
a
microphone,
since
it
is
equipped
with
separate
recording
level
controls
for
the
microphone
inputs
on
the
one
hand
and
for
all
other
inputs
on
the
other.
Thus,
you
may
for
example
record
gra-
mophone
records
and
announce
them
yourself
via
the
microphone.
In
the
case
of
mixed
recordings,
the
recording
level
meters
indicate
the
sum
of
both
levels.
The
mixing
ratio
can
be
adjusted
and
checked
by
monitoring
during
recording.
It
is
advisable
to
use
a
headset
for
this,
in
order
to
avoid
‘howling’.
Multiplay
(sound-on-sound)
When
multiplaying,
you
can
combine
several
mono
recordings
with
each
other.
These
recordings
are
synchronised:
they
keep
good
time
with
each
other,
so
that
it
is
possible
for
example
to
record
a
8
quartet
in
which
every
part
is
played
all
by
yourself,
First
you
make
a
normal
recording
on
track
1.
After
rewinding
the
tape
to
the
start,
you
can
make
your
second
recording
on
track
3,
while
adding,
simulta-
neously,
the
first
recording
from
track
1
to
track
3.
While
making
the
second
recording,
you
can
listen
to
the
first
one
via
a
headset,
so
the
second
recording
is
exactly
synchronised
with
the
first.
Track
3
contains
also
the
first
and
second
record-
ing.
After
rewinding,
you
make
your
third
recording
on
track
1,
while
adding
simultaneously
the
first
and
second
recording
from
track
3
to
track
1.
While
making
the
third
recording
you
can
listen
to
the
first
and
second
recording
via
a
headset.
Track
1
contains
now
the
first,
second
plus
third
re-
cording.
If
desired
you
may
proceed
with
a
fourth
and
a
fifth
recording,
but
you
should
take
into
account
the
so-called
’transfer
loss’,
i.e.
the
deterioration
of
the
sound
quality
when
repeatedly
copying
a
re-
cording.
To
minimise
this
loss
of
quality
it
is
advisable
to
use
the
highest
tape
speed
and
to
record
the
main
part
(e.g.
melody)
at
the
end.
During
the
first
recording,
multiplay
switch
@
must
be
in
its
lower
position.
During
the
second,
third
etc.
recording
the
multiplay
switch
must
be
in
its
upper
position.
After
use,
always
set
the
multiplay
switch
to
its
lower
position.
During
multiplay
recordings,
set
monitor
selector
to
'B’.
Don't
forget
to
switch
track
selector
@
to
the
other
track
before
starting
your
next
recording.
The
recording
level
of
the
new
recording
is
adjusted
with
either
the
control
and
@
or,
during
microphone
recordings
(in
this
case
pos-
sible
only
via
socket
@),
with
control
@.
The
recording
level
of
the
recording
being
added
is
adjusted
with
control
2.
The
illuminated
recording
level
meter
indicates
the
sum
of
the
recording
levels,
so
it
is
advised
to
adjust
the
recording
level
of
the
new
recording
below
normal,
because
the
multiplay
signal
is
still
to
be
added.
The
mixing
ratio
between
the
new
recording
and
the
recording
being
added
can
be
checked
and
adjusted
by
monitoring
during
recording.
When
the
result
of
a
multiplay
recording
is
not
satisfactory,
this
recording
can
be
repeated,
be-
Cause
the
preceding
recording
is
not
erased,
Playback
takes
place
in
the
normal
way
with
track
selector
@)in
the
position
which
was
used
last.
The
second
last
recording
can,
if
desired,
be
erased.
Echo
With
this
recorder,
echo
recordings
can
be
made,
since
the
recorder
is
equipped
with
separate
heads
for
recording
and
playback,
which
are

mounted
‘in
line
(fig.
6).
When
making
an
echo
recording,
the
signal
just
recorded
on
the
tape
by
the
recording
head
©
is
immediately
reproduced
by
the
playback
head
©).
This
playback
signal
is
then
fed
back
to
the
recording
head
and
recorded
_
together
with
the
original
signal.
The
echo-effect
is
due
to
the
distance
between
the
two
heads
and
depends
on
the
tape
speed
used:
at
the
relatively
low
speed
of
4.75
and
9.5
cm/s,
*slow’
echo
effects
are
obtained
and
at
the
higher
speed
of
19
cm/s
a
‘quick’
echo
effect
(‘reverberation’),
can
be
simu-
lated.

Maintenance
It
is
advisable
to
remove
at
regular
intervals
the
dust
and
dirt
which
has
collected
on
the
heads,
and
we
advise
you
to
do
this
using
cleaning
tape
811/CT,
which
is
played
through
once
as
an
ordinary
tape.
Doing
this,
bracket
&
(fig.
4)
must
be
in
position
B.
Cleaning
should
carried
after,
say,
every
50
hours
of
operation
or,
on
average,
once
a
month.
The heads may also be cleaned, however, using a
soft
cloth
or
a
cotton
bud.
To
clean
in
this
way
proceed as follows:
e@
Ensure
that
the
recorder

tape
guides
©,
the
fronts
of
erase
head
@,
recording
head
(©)
and
playback
head
©)
the
capstan
@),
the
rubber
pressure
roller
©
and
the
switching
contact
@.
Never
use
any
other
cleaning
agents
and
do
not
touch
the
heads
with
